“…In addition, ocean climate change was framed as a socioeconomic problem, involving problems from multiple (scientific) domains. The abstract origin and diverse character of the problems are known to hinder people's understanding of climate change [Skanavis et al, 2019]. On the contrary, ocean plastic was mainly framed as a biological and health problem, using on average more frame variables to define the problems in press releases.…”

To understand how scientific institutions communicate about ocean climate change and ocean plastic research, 323 press releases published between 2017 and 2022 were analyzed. A clustering method revealed 4 ocean climate change- and 5 ocean plastic frames that were analyzed qualitatively. Ocean plastic was presented as a biological and health issue, placing an emphasis on solutions and society's obligation to implement them. Ocean climate change was framed as environmental and socio-economic problem, highlighting politics' responsibility for mitigation. Narratives were only used to personify science and represent scientists, indicating that future press releases could include more social dimensions to engage audiences in ocean issues.
